Bless the Night

What if we danced with the dark as holy? What might open up for us if we could face and remove the fears we have projected onto the dark? What actual fears are buried in our minds and hearts? Join a zoom call for an evening and consecutive full day with Reverend Rhetta Morgan to courageously face what stands between us and the loving experience of the sacred dark.  Using chant, poetry, dialogue, and ritual, we will confront and challenge the ways we project our fear onto the dark and explore the blessings of the sacred dark.

By removing the layers of projection we have put on the dark, we may arrive at an embodied revelation that the dark is what the light is born from! The dark is sacred. Challenging our unconscious negative associations with the dark can also change both how we see the world and our power to impact the world. By exposing the negative references towards the dark, we can move towards liberatory wholeness. Limit 30. Click to view the schedule.
